18mm 1.25'' Series LE Eyepiece

LE-Planetary eyepieces are ideal for observing the planets , providing contrast-rich images. They are also ideal for observations of Deep Sky objects, since, in these cases, they also provide high contrast and a high transmission level.

These eyepieces combine in an extraordinary way the elegance and optical power and will enrich the results of their observations in the future. All Omegon LE eyepieces have a ultra-high power synchronized with respect to sharpness and contrast who searches in vain for eyepieces in this category. Which is attached to a Excellent optical design , since the eyepieces correspond exactly to the conditions required by the people who carry out the observations.

Comfortable handling and excellent contrast

Even in the case of high light output reflecting telescopes, LE eyepieces give completely distortion-free representations to the extreme of the visual field . The interior layout consists of seven groups of lens elements in four groups (in the case of 18mm focal length, five elements in three groups). The edges of all lenses They have a black coating, and the glass/air surfaces are sprayed with a highly effective multi-layer coating to suppress reflections. A notable difference with respect to conventional eyepieces represents the large interocular distance of 20mm, which guarantees the very comfortable handling . Even people who wear glasses can take advantage of the full field of vision. The apparent visual field amounts to 55 ^o .

Brilliant renderings and excellent transparency

Different tests demonstrated, compared to similar eyepieces, greater transparency and brighter representations with a dark background and without disturbing stray light. The internal opening system essentially contributes to the reduction of stray light. All focusing distances have 21mm diameter lenses at the observation end. The eyepieces, at the edges, do not artificially increase the field of view, but rather represent a real field without serious distortions on the edges.

When using LE eyepieces, It is not necessary to adhere exactly to the optical axis. Vibrations when viewing through this device do not disturb the observation, as they do not cause shadows that frequently carry the name "kidney bean effect."
